I think I got it working. I am using <xsl:variable> at
the top and setting its value as per the attribute
using <xsl:if> like

  <xsl:variable name="RuleColor">
  <xsl:if test="../@Style='ON'">#000000</xsl:if>
  <xsl:if test="../@Style='OFF'">#FFFFFF</xsl:if>
  </xsl:variable>

Thanks for your help though.

Abhi
